May contain markings such as bookplates, stamps, limited notes and highlighting, or a few light stains., The Feminist Press at CUNY, 2.5, New York. 1986. April 1986. Summit Books. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0671619349. 289 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Louise Fili. Jacket photograph by Francisco Hidalgo/lmage Bank. FROM THE PUBLISHER - Once again, passion is at the heart of André Brink's newest novel. The Ambassador of the title is the newly arrived envoy to France from South Africa. His reputation as a brilliant and distinguished diplomat is borne out as he makes crucial changes at the embassy. But the potent sensuality of Parisian nightlife slowly effects changes in The Ambassador and he gradually becomes involved with a wonderfully appealing and seductive Parisian model, Nicolette. The Ambassadors young third secretary in the embassy, Stephen Keyter, has also become involved with Nicolette and it is within the boundaries of this triangle that a drama of sexual obsession, politics and the struggle between the generations is played out. At first, neither man suspects the other's involvement. But when Stephen discovers that his rival for Nicolette's affections is The Ambassador, he is consumed by both jealous rage and ambition. He reports The Ambassador's adultery to the home office in South Africa and blindly sets in motion a chain of events that alters the course of many lives, including those of The Ambassador's wife and daughter. Each man tells us his version of the story, and André Brink brilliantly juxtaposes the unexamined hypocrisy and competitiveness of the younger man against the honesty and humanity of The Ambassador. For what is at stake for Stephen Keyter is merely pride. But what is at stake for The Ambassador is not simply an extramarital affair, but a choice between the system that has guaranteed his ordered existence and a terrifying freedom. It challenges his distinguished career, the stability of his marriage, his political and religious convictions, his sense of moralityin short, everything he has always taken for granted. Simply told, yet marked with an unforgettable intensity, this new novel will bring André Brink an even larger and more admiring audience. inventory #9 ISBN: 0671619349., 0<
